Wooden box, spice box, pigment box
15 €
Because not everyone could afford pottery or glass, because every peasant knew how to work wood, because some contents did not need a luxury container.
I offer small lidded wooden boxes, hollowed directly out of a log.
This is a very simple everyday object, used for storing goods by people of modest means.
Dimensions: approximately 7 cm high.
